For those who suffer the five o'clock shadow way before it's time, enter this luxury shaving cream designed to actually reduce the appearance of beard growth as well as tackle common shaving problems like razor rash and burn. Millions of men all over the world share a common problem - that tough stubble that seems to defy the attentions of the every shaving cream or foam and blunts the edge of the keenest razor - "Blue Beard".
The Bluebeard luxury Shaving Cream is an award winning product of British Barbershop quality and is completely paraben free. It features Decelerine, a face friendly ingrediant containing a mixture of active ingredients that delay hair growth, reducing the frequency of shaving and depilation and at the same time providing a recovering effect on the skin. Of course, to understand how this award winning cream works, below is some scientific stuff.
How DECELERINE™ works
The normal hair cycle is divided into four periods:
- ANAGEN - Active Growth Phase (2-6 years)
- CATAGEN - a short transition period with regression (2-3 weeks)
- TELOGEN - a resting phase (2-3 weeks)
- EXOGEN - a shedding stage
Then the new hair starts to grow and the follicle is back in Anagen. The length of hair is primarily a function of the relative durations of Anagen and Telogen. Whether hairs are in one of these phases at the time of hair removal is important because only Anagen hairs are particularly sensitive to the effects of DECELERINE™. DECELERINE™ targets it's action in hair follicle cells and weakens new hair formation. It has proved to be effective in inhibiting hair growth, decreasing length and density of unwanted hair and also providing a soothing, moisturising and anti-inflammatory effect. In tests DECELERINE™ showed a 30% decrease in hair length as well as a 16% reduction in hair density after 60 days.
As well as slowing down beard regrowth, DECELERINE™ relieves and soothes the effects of shaving (especially skin prone to irritation and dryness) by providing moisturisation and protection to facilitate it's regeneration.
Directions for use:
Use a shaving brush: For best results use a shaving brush. It is well worth the investment in time as a brush makes a better lather, lifts the hairs and prepares the skin for the razor. Simply apply an almond sized dollop onto your brush and whip up into a fine lather on your face. This pot of The Bluebeards Revenge should last you for about 50 great shaves using this method.
The Bluebeards Revenge has been formulated to the very highest standards in luxury shaving cream manufacture. From an almond size amount and a little water, you should have enough luxurious, thick and creamy lather to load your brush for at least two passes of the razor. It has a signature scent that was chosen by shaving enthusiasts. It is based on a fresh and classic English barbershop scent with a modern twist. The cream typically lasts 2-3 months based on average use of a 100ml tub.
